Sending Attachment not working

[barbara1712]

Hello all,

I want to send an attachment through php using php mail() function.
But my problem is I can see the attachment in my inbox but the message I have specified in $body variable is not displaying.
Could anyone suggest me what i am doing wrong in the following code?

$from = "email1@gmail.com";
$to = "email2@gmail.com";
$subject = "Test mail with an attachment";

$file_name = "testpage.doc";
$body = "This is a test message.This is to show how to send the attachments using simple mail() function.\n\n";
$boundary = md5(time());
$headers .= "From:".$from."\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"".$boundary."\"\n";

$message .= "--".$boundary."\n";
$message .= "Content-Type: application/msword; name=\"".$file_name."\"\n";
$message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n";
$message .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$file_name."\"\n\n";
$message .= "--".$boundary."\n";
$message .= "--".$boundary."\n";
$message .= $body;

if(!mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
    echo "Mail Sending Failed";
else
    echo "Mail Sent"; 

Your help will be highly appriciated.
Thanks,

Change this :

$message .= "--".$boundary."\n"; 

To this:

$message = "--".$boundary."\n"; 

Try it and let me know what happened.

Thanks for reply.I tried as you told me.
But now no attachment + no message at all.

//$message .= "--".$boundary."\n"; commented
$message = "--".$boundary."\n";
$message .= $body; 

Please guide me in my code.

Cheers . Solved.

$from = "email1@gmail.com";
$to = "email2@gmail.com";
$subject = "Test mail with an attachment";
$file_name = "testpage.doc";
$body = "This is a test message.\nThis is to show how to send the attachments using simple mail() function.\n";
$boundary = md5(time());
$headers .= "From:".$from."\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"".$boundary."\"\n";
$message .= "--".$boundary."\n";
$message .= "Content-Type: application/msword; name=\"".$file_name."\"\n";
$message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n";
$message .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$file_name."\"\n\n";
$message .= "--$boundary\n";

$message .= "--".$boundary."\n";
$message .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n";
$message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary\n\n";
$message .= $body;
$message .= "--$boundary\n";

if(!mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
    echo "Mail Sending Failed";
else
    echo "Mail Sent"; 

Now getting attachment and message also.
